In a move that industry analysts had anticipated, Volkswagen revealed on Monday that the ID.Tiguan will succeed the recently discontinued ID.4 crossover. The decision underscores the German manufacturer’s strategy to rely on established model names that hold greater consumer appeal, particularly within the electric vehicle market.
The new ID.Tiguan is scheduled to debut in European showrooms in early 2027. It will complement the ID.Polo and ID.Cross, helping to solidify Volkswagen’s refreshed electric portfolio. The company also confirmed that the vehicle will eventually reach the United States, where the ID.4 was previously produced, though no specific timeline has been set for that launch.
Details regarding the design and technical specifications of the ID.Tiguan remain undisclosed at this time.
I’m glad they’re keeping the ID.Cross. The lineup finally makes sense.
When exactly is the US getting the ID.Tiguan? The article says ‘eventually,’ which is vague.
Wait, so they’re just rebranding the ID.4? That seems like a cheap trick, honestly.
Good call. The Tiguan name carries so much more weight than ID.4 in Europe.
